规范练(三十六)

Ⅰ.阅读理解

A

Throughout the years, there have been quite a few apps that have been banned from the App Store. Usually it has something to do with these features—not working or the app changing private users' information. Recently, there have been other reasons for banning apps. As odd as it may sound (not really), when you create an app that measures how high you can throw your iPhone, apparently Apple doesn't like it.

The application in question is called Send Me To Heaven, and it's probably one of the_most_notoriously_idiotic_apps you could have previously download from the App Store. There's no doubt that Apple banned it from their store, but with the attention that it's now getting, people are going to want to check it out.

If you think about it, and if you decide to check out how high you can throw your iPhone, well, you don't even deserve an iPhone or a smartphone. That's at least true according to Apple, who banned the app as soon as people started complaining about their iPhones breaking when they weren't caught on the way down. Let's just say if you're stupid enough to even want to see how high you can throw your smartphone, maybe you shouldn't have a smartphone in the first case.

Apple's motivation for banning the app was that it was “encouraging behavior that could result in damage to the user's device”. The interesting part is that the app is still available to Android users in the Play Store. Apparently Google doesn't share the same opinion about a game that challenges you to see how high you can throw your smartphone.

People always come up with the most unearthly ideas for apps, and this one, even though it's ultimately useless, is as creative as any other application available. It just doesn't fit the device it is installed on. What do you think? It's very ridiculous to throw your smartphone into the air, and it will most likely cause it to break.

[语篇解读] “送我上天空”是一款看谁把手机扔得高的手机软件，也就是比谁的手机更耐摔。这款软件被苹果公司拒绝。

1．Apple forbids some apps in that ________. A．these apps are not produced by Apple B．these apps fail to identify iPhones C．these apps steal Apple's information D．these apps are thought poor in running

解析：细节理解题。依据第一段的第二句“Usually it has something to do with these features—not working or the app changing private users' information.”可知，通常禁用软件的特征是运行不佳或者应用程序改变私人用户信息。由此可知选D。

答案：D

2．What does the underlined part mean in the passage? A．The most widely accepted app. B．The most foolish app. C．The fairly useful app. D．The latest produced app.

解析：短语猜测题。依据第四段的“it was'encouraging behavior that could result in damage to the user's device'”可知，苹果公司禁用这款软件的原因是一旦人们安装这个软件，并且按照要求操作，就会把手机摔坏。把手机扔向高空的行为很愚蠢，因此选B。

答案：B

3．What is the author's attitude to “Send Me To Heaven”？ A．Supportive. C．Negative.

B．Indifferent. D．Confused.

解析：观点态度题。依据第三段的首句“If you think about it，and if you decide to check out how high you can throw your iPhone，well，you don't even deserve an iPhone or a smartphone”可知，如果你想安装这款软件，如果你决定看看你能把你的手机扔多高，那么，你甚至不应该拥有一部苹果手机或一部智能手机。由此可知作者对这款软件持反对的态度，故选C。

答案：C

4．Which of the following can summarize the passage? A．How high can you throw your iPhone? B．How much are your fond of your iPhone? C．How soon will your iPhone break? D．How interesting does the app sound?

解析：主旨大意题。文中介绍了一款苹果手机禁止安装的软件，这是一款休闲游戏软件，玩这款游戏的玩家需要将手机向天空抛起，这有可能损坏手机，因此选A。

答案：A

B

Dealing with people is probably the biggest problem you face，especially if you are in business.Yes，and that is also true if you are a housewife，architect or engineer.

Research done a few years ago by the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching uncovered a most important and significant fact—a fact later confirmed by additional studies made at the Carnegie Institute of Technology.These investigations revealed that even in such technical lines as engineering，about 15 percent of one's financial success is due to his technical knowledge and about 85 percent is due to the skill in human engineering—the personality and the ability to lead people.

For many years，I conducted courses each season at the Engineers' Club of Philadelphia，and courses for the New York Chapter of the American Institute of Electrical Engineers.A total of probably more than fifteen hundred engineers have passed through my classes.They came to me

because they had finally realized，after years of observation and experience，that the highest-paid personnel in engineering are frequently not those who know the most about engineering.One can，for example，hire the people with mere(仅仅)technical ability in engineering，architecture or any other profession at nominal salaries.But the person who has technical knowledge plus the ability to express ideas，to assume leadership，and to arouse enthusiasm among people is headed for higher earning power.

John D．Rockefeller said that“the ability to deal with people is as purchasable a commodity as sugar or coffee”．“And I will pay more for that ability，”said Rockefeller，“than for any other under the sun.”

Wouldn't you suppose that every college in the land would conduct courses to develop the highest-priced ability under the sun?

[语篇解读] 本文围绕卡耐基技术学院的一项调查，论述了人际交往能力的重要性。 5．The investigations at the Carnegie Institute of Technology found a person's financial success mainly comes from his or her ________.

A．hard work C．people skills

B．great talent D．good habits

解析：细节理解题。根据第二段第二句可知，该调查发现，人们在职场上的成功，大约15%源于他们的专业知识，而另外的大约85%源于他们的人际交往能力和领导能力。

答案：C

6．Why did many engineers attend the author's classes? A．To acquire technical knowledge. B．To make their lives more colorful. C．To get tips to solve their life problems. D．To improve their ability to handle people.

解析：推理判断题。由第三段后三句可知，很多工程师发现，在工程设计领域收入最高的不是那些掌握专业技能最多的人，而是那些掌握专业技能的同时又具备表达能力、领导能力以及能激励他人的能力的人，由此可推知他们来上作者的课是为了提高自己的人际交往能力。

答案：D

7．The underlined word“nominal”in Paragraph 3 probably means ________. A．high C．stable

B．small D．regular

解析：词义猜测题。根据此处语境可知，真正的高收入者并非单纯掌握专业技能的人。也就是说，企业雇用那些只懂技术的人不需要花很多钱，故B项正确。

答案：B

8．The author used John A．prove his point

D．Rockefeller's words to ________. B．give a suggestion

C．draw a conclusion D．introduce his theory

解析：推理判断题。前三段作者一直在论述人际交往能力的重要性，在倒数第二段引用Rockefeller的话(我愿意付出最多的代价来获得人际交往能力)来进一步证明自己的观点。

答案：A Ⅱ.阅读填句
